LOL! Went to find a key to unlock one of the exterior screens and… Voilà! a half-dozen goddam different keys!!!!
It’s taken almost an hour to unjumble that mess, and it’s still not straightened out. Just now: counted NINE keys, a couple of which I don’t even know what they go to.
Part of the problem is, different doors bear different brands of locks. So you can’t just have one or two keys made to work all seven (!!!!) exterior doors. Plus, because these houses back onto public alleys (which call in legions of bums and burglars) which require their own deadbolts, we end up with…hmmm….let us count…
11111 11111 1
ELEVEN LOCKS!
At one point along the line, as I recall, I did ask a locksmith to key all the locks the same. But, for reasons I do NOT recall, he couldn’t do that. He was able to key a few of the same, but not all of them.
And that leads to an even more confusing mess!!
ooooohhhhh gaawd!! i have gotta have some breakfast. where the hell is that coffee?????????
